FoSCel founder urges curriculum reform to strengthen sickle cell education in Ghana

Mr Andoh therefore urged the media, government institutions, educators, health professionals, corporate organisations and the general public to support efforts to improve sickle cell education and ensure that people living with the condition receive accurate information, appropriate care and equal opportunities.

The Founder of the Focus on Sickle Cell Foundation (FoSCel), Amos Andoh, has called for structured, age-appropriate sickle cell education to be integrated into Ghana’s school curriculum to equip young people with accurate information about the condition before they make decisions about relationships and parenthood.

Mr Andoh urged the Ministry of Education, Ghana Education Service, Ministry of Health, Ghana Health Service, National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) and other relevant institutions to support the initiative and strengthen sickle cell education and policy.
